Laszlo,Thanks for the links! I have been looking at some other YouTube videos and wasn't sold but now with some real world info I am sold and going to order oneKeithGood luck with it. One word of advice.... make sure you charge the battery as soon as you get it and then charge it every 2 months or so even if your not using it. Their was a problem with a batch that arrived dead to some people. They were held up in shipping containers for months and the batteries took a dumpThanks for the info. I ordered mine yesterday and they are saying May delivery. Can't wait to try it out.

When they make this in Electric, I am in!
You want an electric boat, get one.... is but the nonsense about how they might be better for the environment needs the full story... starting with the basics... energy spent, tax dollars spent, extra logistics, waste disposal afterlife are never thrown in the mix... and puuuuhlease don't increase my taxes so you can act like your saving our future. nuff said.....

EV is a bad word for some. Heaven help us if it was rainbow colored... The EV boats are still out of my cost/benefit range, but I could easily see a nice shallow draft center console EV boat sitting at my private dock some day. Charged up and ready every morning. Gotta get the private dock first though.
It should be required that you have your own windmill and solar panels to generate the electricity to charge your EV boat!
It should be required that you have your own windmill and solar panels to generate the electricity to charge your EV boat!You are a trouble maker SPQ...If you can afford one right now, you probably do have that though. Would also love to have my own oil rig and processing plant, but I think solar might be closer to reality for me. Still though, I'm not giving up my ICE powered vehicles, especially the fun ones. And I'll never give up my '87 Honda 250R Fourtrax. 250CC 2 stroke (premix) goodness. I'm pretty sure they banned it because you shouldn't be able to have that much fun with your clothes on. I have to plant a new tree every time I start it to offset the environmental harm.
Ever since I went 4-stroke on my boat motors I always complain about the "Smokers". The 2017 Yammies are darned efficient and use about half the fuel of my old Evinrude RAM Ficht 225 HP 2-stroke smokers. (However, I still own an old smoker for my river boat!)

Interesting developments going on, but, when I hear Electric Boat I always think submarines!
